In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
other: the human epidermis
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Vehicle:
other: Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (DPBS)
Details on test system:
The test system (non-transformed human-derived epidermal keratinocytes cultured to form a complex model of the human epidermis) was validated and approved by regulatory authorities for evaluation of skin irritation potential. The EpiDerm™ SIT was developed and designed to predict skin irritation potential of neat test substances in the context of identification and classification of skin irritation hazard according to the EU classification system (R 38 or no label).
